Give Me A Lesson On How To Bet Baseball!!

[BuddyBear]

Does any one know how many of the games last season went over and how many went under?

I don't know off hand El Guapo, but it's about 50-50 so there is no real advantage in betting one side striclty. There may be certain situations where overs do well and vica versa where unders are profittable but what is important is to identify those situations.

Good thread, just found it. Baseball is my passion and I'm looking forward to this betting season with great anticipation.

img, this trend has been a moneymaker for me for years. Bet against a starting pitcher returning from the disabled list, pitching his SECOND game back from injury. The second game seems key. Generally, the first game back they have a "short leash" and don't pitch deep into the game and their adrenalin is pumping...they may do decent. But hammer against them on that second game back from the DL.

maritime I am giving you a reputation vote. Very Good
Post!! I will bet that trend. I love it!!!

Anyone reading this please include your input!!

Around 7.5-9. Games at Coors are usully 11-13

The over/under at the Astrodome when it first opened must've been about 3

[El Guapo]

It took me a little time to read through this list but it is a good education for a new dummy like me. I have always thought baseball was to wierd to bet since I am mainly a football fan. But there seem to be good rules to go by in this list.

5dimes would be a must! if you are betting strictly overnites.

[presley177]

Would 5 dimes be a better baseball book for strictly overnight lines? Is there any book out there that matches there nickel lines?

[Illusion]

Usually 6.5-7.5

[imgv94]

How about if two ace pitchers with 2.00ERA's are pitching?
What will the O/U be?

[imgv94]

Thinking about every Dodger game I have been to, I would say
most of them went under. Whats O/U usually in baseball 9?

[Illusion]

The only thing the Dodgers are good for is unders. Especially in Dodger Stadium.

[imgv94]

Dodgers always start out good early in the season. Expecting barely above
.500 maybe 90 wins at most. I think.

[bigboydan]

It might not help, but I live 3 miles from Dodger
Stadium, I think I know that team pretty well..
I'll try to figure out the Dodgers..

i know a few of the dodgers players IMG. so that will help

[imgv94]

I bet the yankees last year, I lost at the track and came home and
bet the yankees cause I needed a fix, they won 19-4 or 22-4 something
like that.,

[imgv94]

Yeah, but if they treat me like they did last season. They will be blacklisted again. Didnt matter what side of the game I was on with the Nats, it always seemed to go wrong.

I had the same trouble with the Mets last season.

[onlooker]

and lets not forget the Nats either looker

The Dodgers are a great fade all year long, lol.

[bigboydan]

You forgot the White Sox.

and lets not forget the Nats either looker

[bigboydan]

i can think of a few other teams off the top of my head ILL. but, thats a perty good list to start with.

teams like ATL, Mets, and Boston will be good to fade thru the first 80-90 games. the yankees might be a good fade thru the first 100 games.

[onlooker]

Trust me, you are gonna fade teams like New York (both teams) Atlanta, Boston and St. Louis alot this upcoming season.

[Illusion]

The Yankees are always huge favorites and lose money just about every year.

[bigboydan]

IMG, by the time i go to bet on the yankees. the prices are just inflated way too much for me to even touch.

[onlooker]

-135, does that mean you never ever play the yankees?

Pretty much. But I wouldnt never say ever. Would need a good price, and a good matchup in my favor.

[imgv94]

I already know I am going to be a sucker for the yankees! I see them
winning 98-104 games this year. With you guys never betting under
-135, does that mean you never ever play the yankees?

[Illusion]

Just like any other sport I will start small, but come May I will let loose.

[onlooker]

doggie dogs!!! thats what I am talking about!!! so what you guys gonna
do? gonna play any heavy unit games early? how much in to the
season will you start betting higher unit plays?

Going to grind out the first few weeks. To see how the teams come out of the gate. I dont usually hammer games in the first few weeks. It all depends on what you find in the matchups early. So its hard to say right now.

[Illusion]

Over +105 would be close to 85% im.

[onlooker]

I hate to bet anything over -135 in base img. Sometimes I will do a -140/-145, but dont usually. Mostly betting them doggie dogs brother.

[imgv94]

I heard from many people, here and from people outside from
here that its good to bet streaks?? Also ILL in what % of games
in baseball would u say u bet are above +105 odds?

[Illusion]

Upcoming schedules, the entire series pitching matchups, pitchers last three starts, teams upcoming schedules, umpires (if you don't bet overnights) bullpen's era/whip, teams offensive stats the last few days. There's alot more, but those are the major ones.

[imgv94]

What should I look at if I want to cap a game??
